Dumpster Diving "Yellow Team, I'm Goin' In"
Ойын-сауық
Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months when I can scrounge up enough money for gas.

He’s a legend. None will duplicate but many will try!
I’ve adopted the word snibbets into my vocabulary, when I’m crafting I keep all my random pieces of foam board in a snibbet pile. Have a great weekend, enjoy the holiday!
Those metal things with a spring, we used to call them spring zebadies they are electrical fixing parts. we used them to hold up churchouse trunking years ago!
The spaceship part is the escape pod. Lol
Have a good weekend looks like you need some new shoes
Lotsa snibbits, couplers, and scrap metal this time around. Near the end at 23:47-23:48 the things you didn't know what they were and thought were magnetic are called spring nuts. They can be used in various applications but I've used them to make legs for rooftop ductwork.
Way to go mike. You keep hanging in there kid. Take care and stay safe. You're an excellent worker. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎
I wish I still had my black and white 19 inch with the pack man 2600 maze burnt into the screen lol I’d have it turned on for ish and giggles 😆
Never change your style mike you’ve got it down bro
That Cathode Ray Tube you found DOES NOT contain mercury , its has only a vacuum.But it does have metal inside , you need to smash it up first .
You were definitely right down to the wire Mike! Love the yellow tape too. Enjoy your Labor Day weekend!
My god manic Mike, you tire me out just watching your energy flow as you waffle away entertaining us...luff ya! 💞
10:15 I saw you shaking when you saw all those buckets!!!!! LAUGH OUT LOUD
Wire: we goin home with Mike. Yeaaaa !
A lot of dumpsters in a town I live close to, are locked up. No dumpster diving in those for scrap metal.
love ya MIKE...have a safe LABOR DAY WEEKEND...from DUNEDIN,FL..we love ya here xoxoxoxoxx FOE SURE!!!!! ALL RIGHT YA'LL
You are such a good shot throwing in dollie
Hilti power tools 🛠 it’s a load for a tool for driving nails into steel or concrete....
Hilarious!! great video, certainly better than any tv show. thanks Mike
Love open tops. After watching you scrap other scrappers are sooo slowww. It’s like watching paint dry

You ain’t lying! When I scrap I try to keep his pace. It’s not easy. I’ll be starting a KZread channel soon about scrapping. Hopefully it’s half as good as mikes videos.
loving the makeshift repair to your shoe with the yellow tape
This is a welcome surprise!! A video from Mike!! Straight away playing hunt the cat wire!!
The nice and quiet episode :D love it !
I see lots of plywood. That's good as gold round here!
Greetings Mike. Happy to see you getting those treasures again. Let's fill Dottie up and over. We'll help you. GOD BLESS you always. Thank you for sharing,passing knowledge/blessings forward yippee. PLEASE be CAREFUL. Don't get hurt/injured. Be safe,healthy &blessed always
Those with the springs are “spring nuts” they slide inside unistrut to add a point of attachment for conduit or whatever.
Mike the percussion caps you saw on that yellow strip are for nail guns, they shoot nails into the concrete ore iron beams , if you use them , you have for something like that always a permit to use it. Mike the clamps you have are often used to attach sprinkler pipes to the iron beams that should not be drilled into . Greetings
This guy knowledge about stuff is good
Enjoyed riding along Mike. You and wife have a nice weekend.

Getting a kick out of the silence of the lamb movie quotes love it!
Thanks for the video bro. Makes my day when I see I have a video of yours to watch. Keep on keepin on bro
the strip of plastic stuff is a holder for collated screws for a screwgun, makes doing drywall really quick and easy, if you ever find full ones with the screws in, take them cos they're expensive
You getting your pitch back! Yeah! Have a great day!
Every find things u don’t want to ever find in a dumpster lol 😂 have a good one keep making videos
Baskets and wires is the lesser known sequel to boats and hoes!! 😂😂
Those strips of bullets are Hilti powerlets. For driving concrete nails.
Your aim for the most part is pretty darn good.
LOL love the growing amount of tape on that shoe Mike. Don't throw it out till it blows out!
"King of the Snibbets". That would make a great Tshirt.

Also wth was that big metal ball "piece of a spaceship" thing?
I love how the yellow tape on the left shoe is getting bigger each video 😂
I'll advert my eyes at the appropriate time ( Little Big Man ). What ever happened to the circler spaceship steel? That was good weight.
Gotta get that scrappity scrap Mike. Dont forget the snibbets!! Love ya brother be safe man.
Wow, you ever play basketball? Hit that truck every time !!!lol 😆
It puts the lotion on its skin else it gets the hose in the dumpster again lol
Is youre shoes broken? Yellow tape👍👌🤣🤣🤣
20:56 those things that look like "Bullets" go in a Hilti concrete gun that shoots anchors into concrete used to use them when i was a pipefitter we had 2 different guns the little one that we valled the 9mm and the big one that was the 357 lol but awesome bid mike keep it up ....
20:58 they go to a ramset nailer
LOL, "glory hole" 😉, glad you didn't put your snipbit in it; bad things could have happened. Good stuff Mike, have a safe Labor Day= take a much deserved rest Dude 👍✌🖖
King of the snippets 👑👑👑🙏🙏 keep em coming brother
Good job.
Hey Mike, don't touch that part of CRT's monitors (tube screen). They save a big amount of energy and IF you touch in a wrong place, you can be eletrocuted or cause a small explosion and break The glass of the screen. Sometimes it happens Sometimes it doesn't. MAYBE... Stay safe!
Love your energy keeping it real.
Aluminum cans add up too if you start saving those
I would think u could find a use for strapping. Good video.
Crt screen. Used in arcade machines. Watch out for the flyback, its a lot of volts coming out of the vaccum chamber when you cut tge large copper wire. Hart attack material
Few bucks of garage sale cash in all of those orange pvc fittings.
Those bullets as you call them on the strip were for a Ramset concrete gun
Should micro scrap the motor would be cool to see how much copper it has
And we the ppl decrees thee King 👑 of the Snipits or is that Snibits,snibetts🤔 all hail the Lord of the dumpsters 🤿
Hey Mike your shoes looks like the Marlboro Man's boots from the movie Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man with the tape around the end of your shoes holding them together I'm sure somebody will get that reference that was a great movie
2:00 Well, I guess that Yellow Duct tape will repair a shoe that's coming apart for dumpster diving. I only use old shoes when I mow the grass. I don't want my white shoes turning green.
I think you will find a Degaussing Coil around the actual screen closer to the viewing part
Saya suka video nya,barang barang masih berguna banget.
3:30 hey I need that hose lol
comming back from work. and seeing mike getting the stuff agian. NEadoo!!
Don't step in da paint homie lol
The bullets as you called them are from a Hilton powered activated tool for driving various fasteners into concrete and other material
What do you do if they are replacing the pull alarms during a fire?
Is that gonna be a new T-shirt? 'King of the Snibetts' ? :))

Looks like an old Okuma lathe CNC screen.
I saw a set of keys on a keyring in the first dumpster.
Did I hear an F bomb drop down when he was trying to identify the Ramset strip? Nice.
Wonderful dumpster diving episode. Thumbs up and thanks for sharing this story.
Awsome score thanks for sharing looks like you need some new shoes
Those are C - Channel Clamps...Nice load today!
Good evening mike from Philippines
Mike google Unistrut and unistrut nuts they are not magnets You seem to find a lot of it should be able to Craigslist short peaces and parts for way more then scrap and those metal pipes you always find are conduit. I watch all your vids keep an eye out for those critters and don't get hosed in the dumpster
good job stay safe
THERES COMPRESSION AIR INSIDE THE TELE SCREENS THAT YOU PICKED UP MIKE
Nice video mike
@10:20 Obviously the escape pod part of the space ship.🚀🛰🛸🌌🪐🌎
You should start returning bottles

The pieces with the spring. Are called spring nuts. For unistrut.
Guten abend. 👍
That red plastic strip you picked up n at t he end is a shot strip to put green plate down on concrete ...its' a code violation to put anything that isn't green plate lumber on say, a concrete basement floor or on a concrete wall....💙💜💙
I love your videos
I don't get much cat wire. They call it low recovery and give me about 0.27 lb.
:D scanverger style life :D
I find that you have 2 cycles with those open tops. You get the scrap from when they rip stuff out and then you get the scrap from when they put the new stuff in the building. Maybe worth keeping an eye out.
the evil eye! got that before!
At 2:54 I just found three of those same baskets in someone's yard waste trash at the curb last week. Two weed wackers and a red wooden crate box. I wonder what they are for? They're really nice looking but big holes so I don't know what they can hold. Unless I put a cloth covering on it or a cloth basket inside. Hey, I just remembered that I also found three new in the wrapper cloth basket at the same location that I kept. Ideas are forming in my head. I'll have to check it out and see if they can work together.
Great video
Check the black bags
Hi on the TV screen take the copper yolk and the gray thick copper wire going round the screen on the back. The Degaussing cable.
Why do you take the ac stuff you have to step on but not the wall studs. Do they weigh about the same.
The beam clamps are for holding up Unasturt. Also the red strip with the .22 cal. Looking chargers in it are for a ramset to set nails in concrete hope this helps.
